Steve Bruce has confirmed that new signing Robert Snodgrass is set to miss at least six months after a scan revealed the midfielder dislocated his knee and damaged ligaments during the win over QPR.

The news comes as a devastating blow for the Scottish international who was hopeful of a return within 2/3 months; but a second battery of tests indicated the damage was far worse than first feared after his initial scan proved inconclusive. The Hull City squad is already stretched having to fight on two separate footballing fronts - Premier and the Europe League - and this latest development could force the Tigers coach back into the transfer market with only ten days of the window remaining.

Hull City's opening day victory at Loftus Road was tainted by the news that new signing Robert Snodgrass could be set for an extended spell on the side-lines.

Steve Bruce fears the worse after midfielder Robert Snodgrass was replaced just before half-time after failing to recover from a heavy Joey Barton tackle. The Tigers manager confirmed post-match that his new £7 million man twisted his knee in the challenge and will be sent for a scan to confirm the full extent of the damage. The injury adds to a growing list of concerns which include Liam Rosenior and Alex Bruce (both back); Hull City take on Lokeren from Belgium on Thursday in the Europa League.

Robert Snodgrass is another midfield recommendation in this week's player picks column.

Hull have completed some decent business over the summer, none more so then securing Snodgrass from relegated Norwich. The Scottish international looked a class apart last season and will be a constant danger from corners and free-kicks around the area. At a fantasy price of £7million it's hard to think of a reason not to pick him. Fri, Aug 15, 2014 02:58:00 AM

Hull City played a more attacking, midfield-centric line-up in their home Europa Cup win last night that featured a start for Robert Snodgrass.

High profile signing Robert Snodgrass started the second leg of Hull City's Europa Cup qualifying win over AS Trencin where he came in off the bench in the first leg. Given the fee paid for Snodgrass, the expectation will be that he will start far more frequently than he doesn't and this was no exception. It is newsworthy because he didn't start the previous match. As a pre-season bonus, Snodgrass started the move that yielded the winner for Hull City. Fri, Aug 8, 2014 08:52:00 AM
